The Rolling Stones musician was found dead in his swimming pool in 1969 aged 27, with a coroner recording a death by misadventure, saying he had drowned while ‘under the influence of alcohol and drugs’. Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake is the (much) better game, but there’s no reason not to play both, especially after finishing Death Stranding.Rolling Stones star Brian Jones was found dead in his swimming pool in 1969 aged 27 (Picture: Getty)Ī previously-unseen witness statement has cast doubt on the investigation into Brian Jones’ death. It’s a charming stealth game, with great level design and plenty of fun set pieces. It isn’t the first game Kojima worked on, but it’s an important one and a title that often goes ignored. Stealth as a video game genre only truly materialized after Metal Gear.

In regard to the “Strand” genre, Hideo Kojima reportedly pointed out that the stealth genre didn’t exist when Metal Gear came out for the MSX2 in 1987. Anyone who hasn’t played the first MGS owes it to themselves to see how Kojima’s approach to 3D game design has evolved since 1998. Stealth and non-lethal vs lethal combat are still very much in play. In many respects, Death Stranding feels like a natural evolution of The Phantom Pain’s core gameplay. It goes without saying, but Metal Gear Solid as a series has a clear influence on Death Stranding. Stealth, combat, and sabotage are the main objectives in Metal Gear Solid 5, and not simply reaching a destination. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain is closest to Death Stranding because it is an open-world game. If anybody went into Death Stranding without knowing Hideo Kojima's prior work, then now is as good a time as ever to find out. As a whole, this series has a similar feel to Death Stranding, but we have three options within the series that are especially similar. There are quite a few Metal Gear games, reaching back to 1987. That makes the moments when you do connect with someone all the more special, just like how distribution centers can fill you with such warmth in Death Stranding. You have your glider – a hoverbike that’s in tune with your feelings – but other than that, you’re really on your own. What makes Sable such a great game for fans of Death Stranding is just how well it nails the atmosphere of venturing out alone. RELATED: Things We Wish We Knew Before Starting Sable Really, that’s up to how inquisitive you are. Along the way, you may bump into a whole host of colorful characters each with their own missions. You’ve just got to get out there and figure things out for yourself. You’re given an objective to make a mask that determines what you’ll be doing for the rest of your life, and that’s pretty much it. However, Sable does it in a way that no other game has. Stop us if you’ve heard this one before, but Sable is a game all about making connections across a desolate world.
